Description Beat Wolf 2006-01-04 15:33:43 UTC

Version:            (using KDE Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources

If my internet connection goes down, i dont see that in kopete. My router is not very good, and sometimes he reconnects. When im just chating while he does so, i cant see that i went offline, and only 5 minutes later i see kopete reconnecting. This is a big problem, gaim is able to see the disconnections way faster. I hope someone can fix this.

which protocols? not all protocols provide enough support for knowing that they've been disconnected.

Comment 2 Beat Wolf 2006-01-13 12:15:29 UTC

I have this problem with icq msn and jabber. jabber im not sure because i only use it since a few days and have not been watching if it behaves the same way as the other 2 protocols do

Maybe the KDE4's Solid connection manager will help for that.

Actually, we are just waiting the connection times out.

Comment 4 Matt Rogers 2006-02-26 16:17:38 UTC

how does your connection work? (DSL through a router, dial-up, etc)

Comment 5 Thomas Beinicke 2006-02-26 18:50:00 UTC

For me ICQ and MSN detect it instantly when I get disconnected (every 24 hours) but Jabber and Yahoo take a very very long time until they timeout.

Comment 6 Jan Ritzerfeld 2006-02-26 19:16:02 UTC

Here, ICQ and kdetalk.net take some (>10, IIRC) minutes. jabber.ccc.de detects a disconnect nearly instantly.

Comment 7 Olivier Goffart 2006-08-04 20:56:48 UTC

This is something we can hardly solve. And need to be solved for each protocols.
